Book of the Week

I realized that while we always have a book or two on the go, we haven’t read a classic for ages and when I spotted this in the library I grabbed it. I remember reading my way through the entire series as a kid and not being able to read them fast enough. Well I have to say, could a book be more gripping… a boy, a horse, a shipwreck and survival. Literally sitting on the edges of the seat and an aaaargh… every time we reach the end of a chapter and say, “That’s it for the day…” And it is a genuine, “Please can we have a little more?” because they have to hear more of the story rather than they just like being read too.

Hi again! Our year is flying past, but I have to admit that in many areas my kids are just not feeling it 🙁 Perhaps we just need a break or perhaps I need to shake things up a bit!
Which leads to my questions: I have been following your journal posts and pins on Pinterest avidly, but please share how you incorporate them/use them — daily? weekly? a whole mishmash of subjects or a book per subject?
and then,
please break your science down for me! do you just grab a book that looks interesting and run with it or do you follow Sonlights curriculum? Would really love some help in this area!!
Thanks se7en + 1!!

Oh Mlisska, You have no idea how your questions make my heart sing!!! I love answering homeschooling questions, I am going to answer them in a post in the next week or so. Watch out for a homeschooling post or two. Really thank you so much for asking, it really inspires me to post more about school. I have to be honest I forget to post about the school we get up to unless someone asks a question – so feel free to ask away!!! Hope you are having the best week!!!
